Toro, toro

This weekend had a definite bull theme.  On Saturday we headed to a cortijo, an Andalusian ranch, to see how fighting bulls are raised and have a class with a professional bullfighter.  The boys were also able to enter the ring and try their skills with some baby bulls.  On Sunday we caught a bullfight in the Maestranza, sort of like seeing a game in Fenway or Wrigley.
Quick gazpacho lesson at the ranch

Many tried their hand with the cape before entering the ring
